How to Use

Installation Instructions

Initial setup

The sonic head transducer connects to the float (included with your purchase) via a chain (included)
The power cord (included) connects to the land-based 24VACDC power supply (included) and the transducer.
1. The 30 meters of cable connects the transducer to the power supply
The 24VACDC power supply remains on-shore. Connect it to your primary household power supply.
To securely connect the float in your pond, there are 2 methods: anchor or staking.
1. Choose the one that works best for your pond and situation
2. Method 1/anchor:
  1. Fill an empty bleach bottle with sand or gravel (total fill weight a minimum of 5kg, preferably closer to 10kg) to use as an anchor.
  2. Attach enough nylon rope + 30cm (not supplied) for the depth of your pond to both the anchor and the float.
  3. Row to the reasonable center of the pond and drop the anchor and install the float and transducer. Please wear a PFD any time you work on water.
3. Method 2/ staking.
  1. Measure the narrowest point between both shorelines at the center of your pond.
  2. Attach enough nylon rope (not supplied) to the float in 2 equal lengths to transverse your pond. *If your pond is a pronounced oval or oblong, you’ll need a length long enough to walk around the pond on one piece of the rope.
  3. Stake (not supplied, old heavy duty tent pegs work and use your best judgment in choosing ground dry enough to securely hold the stake) the nylon rope on one shoreline, hold the longer rope portion, walk around to the other side of the pond, carrying the transducer until you must place it in the water. Then complete your path on the opposite side from the first stake. Install the nylon rope to your second stake.
  4. Ensure that the tension on the nylon rope is reasonable for your pond conditions. Less tension means your float will move more in windy conditions.
  5. If you mow the lawn to your shoreline, it’s prudent to flag or mark your stakes.
